Dooner,

Buy the factory intake as it is a dual plane and will make more torque under 
3500rpm for a non-stroked Poly 318 with high rear end gears (2.76-3.23). 
The Weiand will work well for  Stroker application and with lower rear gears 
on a non-stroker Poly.
Either way, buy the cast iron Poly intake and use it or you can easily 
resell it to finance your Poly build - whichever way you go.

The cast iron Poly intake made 440ft. lbs. of torque @ 3500rpm and 361HP @ 
5000rpm for a special "Poly Street Stroker" engine I built recently; '66 
Charger with high 2.76 gears that wasn't interested in power over 5000rpm; 
although the engine would certainly perform above 5000rpm I designed it to 
make all its HP & Torque to move the heavy Charger and be a killer street 
engine with docile manners.
